The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

In Northumberland we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent a result of people not being totally sure the way to to make use of (be aware: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it asap. And definitely do not start up the car - not even to move it into a parking bay. In cases where you did start the car you will most likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Should you end up in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers have the technical knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car in NE66 Postcode - Alnwick Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a good night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Saturday and I was on the way to help an old woman who had put petrol in her diesel matte black Jaguar XJ Series in Alnwick. She told us that she drove away from the filling station forecourt and broken down in a backwater lane on the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location punched straight into the TomTom and was on-scene inside 60 minutes. I reached the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing the drain she explained, "Now I'm becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel as I had just bought it a few days ago after my other car, which I'd owned for about twenty years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I completed the drain and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. What a pleasant Northumberland lady!

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
    • A lot of smoke (more than usual)
    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VA receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
